Chapter 1363: Chapter 1363: Hearing about Dadao Mountain Again
"The City Lord of Eternal Winter is personally going to the Tower of Eternal Winter at this critical moment, probably forewarned. I will let Su Chengyu join you in this matter."
"No need!"
You Ming excitedly spoke up, drawing Su Chengyu and Mo Ningchen’s attention to her immediately.
Realizing she had somewhat lost her composure, You Ming quickly controlled her emotions and said, "What I mean is, I can accomplish this task alone."
Just as Su Chengyu was about to speak, Mo Ningchen’s expression suddenly turned grave: "You Ming Saint Envoy, this is a mission!"
Although nothing much was said, it made You Ming calm down instantly. She lowered her head and did not say anything more, silently consenting.
Su Chengyu watched the strange scene with curiosity but did not say more.
"You Ming will be temporarily entrusted to you; make sure she doesn’t do anything inappropriate."
"Understood."
Su Chengyu nodded in agreement.
However, Mo Ningchen was not overly authoritative, advising Su Chengyu to only assist You Ming with the mission, leaving the specifics of how to proceed up to You Ming.
Regarding this, Su Chengyu naturally had no objections. Concerning the Bei Luo Empire, he indeed knew less than the other two, not to mention that this matter clearly held a special significance for You Ming.
And recalling what Mo Ningchen had previously said, Su Chengyu planned to take this opportunity to inquire about what kind of relationship exactly existed between You Ming and the Nether Clan.
The car stopped.
The door opened, and they were still greeted by Blair’s ingratiating face.
For the three state-level distinguished guests assigned from above, this auditor exhibited sufficient respect on the surface.
"This is Eternal Winter Castle. I have previously instructed that your dwellings are prepared and no one is allowed to freely wander; you can treat this place as your own private grounds for the duration," said Blair.
"Thank you, Mr. Blair."
Su Chengyu replied politely.
"Just a trivial matter. There are dedicated attendants inside, available 24 hours to await your commands for anything you require," said Blair, who had already led the three to their arranged residences, with lavish decorations complementing the Western architectural style, truly reminiscent of a medieval royal residence.
For Su Chengyu, visiting this kind of place for the first time, it was indeed a bit of a surprise.
Although Su Chengyu was officially the genteel young master, Blair was surely aware of this, arranging separate rooms for the three of them.
Upon knowing her own dwelling, You Ming immediately locked herself inside, clearly not intending to speak more with the others at this critical juncture.
Mo Ningchen glanced at Su Chengyu, who immediately understood and nodded, "I will keep an eye on the Saint Envoy."
At this moment, Su Chengyu finally understood why, for this operation, the Demon Slayer Department did not allow the more familiar You Ming to lead, but rather Mo Ningchen.
Currently, You Ming was clearly on the verge of losing control of her emotions.
"Even a Saint Envoy is human and has their own thoughts and ideas. Indeed, in the Demon Slayer Department, Aunt Ye isn’t the only special one."
Alone in the room, Su Chengyu murmured to himself, gaining a deeper understanding of the relationships among the Twelve Holy Emissaries.
To have reached this position, even Cang Xue, who was once the weakest in the team of Twelve Holy Emissaries, had her own stance and thoughts. These Holy Emissaries were definitely not merely puppets trained by Yang Chengyin; it can be said that each one of them had their own selfish motives.
Moreover, from his sole encounter with Yang Chengyin, it seemed that the Demon Slayer Department Head might very well be aware of his subordinates’ individual thoughts and ideas, yet still let them hold high positions, which only shocked Su Chengyu further about what the Honored One truly intended to do.
With his methods, he could have transformed the team of Twelve Holy Emissaries into a uniquely supreme force, yet Yang Chengyin seemed to have chosen not to do so.
What does this guy really want to do?
The sparse clues left Su Chengyu unable to piece together the whole picture, which further convinced him that joining the Demon Slayer Department was the right choice.
Yang Chengyin’s danger is definitely not merely due to his strength; his grandfather, with a dominating power that once rode roughshod over the universe, was also taken down by him, and it was certainly not just because of his grandfather’s trust in him.
Yang Chengyin...
"Chengyu?"
Beside him, Fang Qing, who was released by Su Chengyu from his miniature domain, looked at Su Chengyu with a serious expression and hesitantly spoke.
Su Chengyu then brought his mind back, showing a smile and asking with concern, "What’s wrong?"
He knew that for the current Fang Qing, who still hadn’t walked out from the shadows of being enslaved, he needed to be as caring as possible.
"It’s nothing, it’s just that I haven’t seen you for a long time, and I feel like you’re different from before."
Fang Qing’s words clearly contained many considerations, and even this remark was blurted out after she couldn’t hold it back any longer towards Su Chengyu.
Su Chengyu responded with a light smile, "After all, so much time has passed, and I’ve gone through a lot of things."
Fang Qing somewhat understood; indeed, if it weren’t for going through so many things, with his stature and status undergoing drastic changes, how could Su Chengyu appear in the Bei Luo Empire and rescue her from those people?
"How are my sisters... are they alright?"
Su Chengyu nodded, briefly mentioned about Fang Yue and the recent situation of the Fang Family, and also brought up people like Lin Chuxue and Xu Nanzhi that Fang Qing was familiar with.
Of course, regarding the secrets of the Ancient Clan and the Martial God sacrifices, Su Chengyu did not let this outsider know.
Even though Fang Qing is now a Cultivator, currently only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Building, knowing those things would be more harmful than beneficial to her.
"That’s good." Fang Qing listened and let out a satisfied sigh, "I always thought I needed to go out and see the world, but after experiencing these things, I realize that only home is the safest."
Su Chengyu smiled noncommittally.
Even if within the country the collusion of officials in the Dragon Soul Department is severe, and the Demon Slayer Department’s persecution and eradication of the Demon Clan has reached a relentless intensity.
For ordinary people like Fang Qing, the Dragon Soul Demon Slayer still represents their biggest umbrellas of protection.
As long as these two departments exist, their personal safety can be minimally guaranteed.
Perhaps... that is why grandfather was willing to retreat behind the scenes, content to become an outsider, right?
It wasn’t due to kindness towards Yang Chengyin, but for the protection of over a billion ordinary citizens of Xia Country.
And even so, Xia Country nowadays has still caught someone’s attention.
"By the way, Su Chengyu. There’s something I’ve never mentioned, but I think it might be useful to you."
"Hmm?"
Su Chengyu looked towards Fang Qing.
Fang Qing explained, "Those who targeted me had attacked me abroad, but I was actually captured domestically."
"Where?" Su Chengyu’s brow furrowed as he immediately pressed.
Fang Qing thought for a moment and said, "I can’t recall the exact location, but I was indeed captured on my way to climb a famous mountain domestically."
"What mountain?"
"Dadao Mountain."
